Grandma came over to watch the girls for us while we attended Mike's work Christmas party. It was a few days before Grandma's birthday, so the girls made her a birthday cake. I'm pretty sure the girls had more than one piece of her cake!
The girls were sooo excited to decorate the Christmas tree! I would have been more excited had I remembered that I had gotten new lights and bulbs during the previous after-Christmas sales! I remembered after the tree had been all decorated, and I wasn't about to take everything down and put the new stuff up! Hopefully next year I will remember!
Above is Lilly playing dress-up! Not sure where that hat even came from, but it looks nice and warm!
Above is Macey with her two friends playing dress-up. School was cancelled last week so they had to find something entertaining to do inside. We have been very busy getting ready for the holidays. I'm happy to report that I have only 1 or 2 more gifts to buy and have about half my wrapping done. The girls and I did all of our baking this weekend as well, so that is now done. We made cut-outs, fudge, peanut butter cup cookies and turtles. I can tell you that I will not be baking for a long time after all that! We managed to get an "okay" Christmas card picture taken this weekend as well. I thought that would get easier the older they get but apparently not! We're looking forward to getting together with our family over the holidays. The girls are very excited to play with their cousins! Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year!
